Volume 5: Twenty Undoubted Chapter 281 The Sour Smell of Yuan Xudong's Love

After returning to the dormitory and packing up a bit and changing into some casual clothes, Jiang Xiaoguo, Luo Yan, and Duan Jiabao went to the Old Place Tea Restaurant near the school for dinner. Before that, Jiang Xiaoguo had sent a short message to Yuan Xudong, inviting him to have a simple meal at the Old Place Tea Restaurant near the school at 7:30 pm, and introduced her roommate and good friend Luo Yan and Duan Jiabao to him, and Yuan Xudong readily agreed.
At 7:20 in the evening, Yuan Xudong arrived at the Lao Di Fang Tea Restaurant ten minutes earlier than the agreed time. This is a relatively affordable local restaurant with good quality and low prices. In addition, the environment of the restaurant is clean and tidy, and it is close to the school gate. Usually, college students from South China University of Finance and Economics like to dine here, including Jiang Xiaoguo's dormitory and Yuan Xudong's dormitory.
Seeing Yuan Xudong walk into the restaurant, Jiang Xiaoguo, who had been paying attention to the restaurant entrance, immediately stood up from his seat and waved:
"Yuan Xudong, here, here!"
“Here it comes!”
Hearing Jiang Xiaoguo's voice, Yuan Xudong walked over with a smile. Unlike the Jiang Xiaoguo he had seen before, Jiang Xiaoguo tonight wore a white coat with a hood, sky blue jeans, neatly combed short hair, a pair of big eyes with distinct black and white, and a petite face. She looked extremely cute, just like a little sister next door, making people involuntarily develop a good impression of her. Yuan Xudong was no exception. He walked over to Jiang Xiaoguo, handed her a bunch of red roses that he had bought at a roadside flower shop, and said with a smile:
"Xiao Guo, this is for you!"
"Thanks!"
I didn't expect Yuan Xudong to give me flowers. Jiang Xiaoguo took the red rose and blushed. Seeing her and Yuan Xudong like this, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan beside them couldn't help but cheer:
"Xiao Guo, what's going on?"
"That is, do you two have any unspeakable secrets?"
"Shitou, Dabao, what nonsense are you talking about?"
After glaring at Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan who wanted to make fun of him, Jiang Xiaoguo first introduced Yuan Xudong, then Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan. Yuan Xudong, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan greeted each other, and after getting to know each other, the four of them sat down again. Luo Yan and Duan Jiabao sat on one side of the long table, and Yuan Xudong and Jiang Xiaoguo sat on the other side. Jiang Xiaoguo handed him the menu and said with a smile:
"Order whatever you want to eat. It's my treat tonight!"
"good!"
After taking the menu and taking a look at it, Yuan Xudong looked at Jiang Xiaoguo and said:
"Have you guys ordered yet?"
"It's past the point!"
"What did you order?"
"I ordered this clay pot chicken, this spicy and sour potato shreds, and this Kung Pao chicken..."
Jiang Xiaoguo pointed at the names and illustrations of the dishes on the menu and talked about them one by one. After she finished, Yuan Xudong felt that it was enough to eat. In addition, he was not very picky about food, so he ordered a diving fish dish:
"That's almost enough. I just want one more diving fish!"
"good!"
Taking the menu from Yuan Xudong, Jiang Xiaoguo asked the waiter to order a diving fish. After a while, the waiter started serving the dishes. Yuan Xudong and his friends ate and chatted. Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan tried to bring the topic to Yuan Xudong and Jiang Xiaoguo, but Yuan Xudong and Jiang Xiaoguo countered their moves and gradually brought the topic to their plans after graduation.
"Dabao, Shitou, you will graduate in a year, what are your plans?"
Jiang Xiaoguo asked Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan who were sitting opposite her while picking up the belly of the diving fish with chopsticks.
"I don't know either!"
Hearing Jiang Xiaoguo talking about his plans after graduation, Duan Jiabao shook his head slightly, looking a little depressed:
"I've applied to several agencies, but none of them want me. If it doesn't work out, I'll just go work for my dad's company after graduation!"
After Duan Jiabao finished speaking, Luo Yan on the side said:
"I just like playing games and watching anime. In order to play games for two more years, I decided to take the postgraduate entrance examination. My mother has a classmate who works at Peking University, and she wants me to take the postgraduate entrance examination!"
"I really envy you two. Dabao, although you can't find a job right now, you can go home and inherit a billion-dollar fortune. Shitou, although you play games and watch anime every day, you have your mother behind you to support you. You can choose to continue studying, get a master's degree, a doctorate, a postdoctoral degree, etc. You can also study abroad and see the world!"
Jiang Xiaoguo said with envy that when she was very young, her father divorced her mother because of another woman, and she lived with her mother. Since then, the family's financial situation has plummeted, which has also cultivated her character of being fussy about money. She can tell others frankly that she is a person who likes money and cares about money. After talking about Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan, Jiang Xiaoguo looked at Yuan Xudong curiously:
"Yuan Xudong, what do you plan to do after graduation?"
"Me?"
Seeing Duan Jiabao, Luo Yan, and Jiang Xiaoguo looking at him curiously, Yuan Xudong thought for a moment and said with a smile:
"I am currently working as a game merchant. After a while, I plan to sell all the virtual assets I have, and then find a job at a financial investment company to accumulate capital and experience. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will start my own investment company. I like money and like making money. Since the purpose of work is to make money, why not do a job that directly 'makes money'?"
“That makes sense!”
Hearing Yuan Xudong say this, Jiang Xiaoguo nodded slightly and said:
"My current job is quite boring. On the one hand, I don't make much money. On the other hand, I always have to report celebrity gossip, such as cheating, domestic violence, etc. Some of it is true, and some is just hearsay. It's not interesting at all!"
After listening to Jiang Xiaoguo and seeing that the dishes on the table had been almost finished, Yuan Xudong stood up from his seat and said:
"I'm going to go out for a while, you guys eat slowly!"
"Okay, go ahead and come back soon!"
"good!"
After Yuan Xudong left, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan immediately looked at Jiang Xiaoguo and gossiped:
"What's going on? Does he like you?"
"That's right, I also gave you red roses, how romantic!"
"What? He and I are just ordinary friends, okay?"
Seeing Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan looking at her in disbelief, Jiang Xiaoguo picked up the red rose beside her and looked at it, then leaned towards Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan and smiled in a low voice:
"Actually, I think he likes me a little bit, but I'm too embarrassed to say it out loud!"
“Oh~~”
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo's smug look, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan couldn't help but tease her:
"What about you, do you like him too?"
"Of course. Yuan Xudong is so handsome. How could our Xiaoguo resist the temptation of such a handsome man? It's just a pity for Zhao Dachuan. He is eagerly hoping that Xiaoguo will come back to him."
Seeing Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan making fun of him and talking more and more outrageously, Jiang Xiaoguo couldn't help but glare at them and said:
"What are you talking about? He's back. Just be quiet, okay?"
"Got it, Master Xiaoguo!"
Yuan Xudong went to the tea restaurant's proprietress to settle the bill and came back. He saw Duan Jiabao, Luo Yan, and Jiang Xiaoguo staring at him intently. He couldn't help but ask:
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"nothing!"
The three girls shook their heads in unison, returned to normal, and ate with Yuan Xudong for a while. When they had almost finished the dishes on the table, Jiang Xiaoguo checked the time and said:
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back!"
"Okay, let's go!"
Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan walked hand in hand together. Yuan Xudong followed behind Jiang Xiaoguo. Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo was about to go to the cashier to pay, Yuan Xudong pulled her and said with a smile:
"I've already paid, let's go!"
"What?"
Hearing that Yuan Xudong had already paid the bill, Jiang Xiaoguo slightly widened his eyes and said:
"How much is it in total? Did you use the coupon?"
"Two hundred and ninety-six, no coupon!"
"No, I want to go find the boss lady!"
Without having time to explain to Yuan Xudong, Jiang Xiaoguo ran to the cashier counter, handed the boss lady a fifty-yuan coupon and said with a smile:
"Madam boss, my friend just paid the bill. The total consumption was 296 yuan. I am 4 yuan short of 300 yuan. Please give me two more packs of wet wipes. I have a coupon worth 50 yuan. You still have to give me 46 yuan in change!"
Glancing at Jiang Xiaoguo, a regular customer in the store, the lady boss took the coupon and said with a smile:
"Xiao Jiang, you are really good at budgeting. Okay, remember to take care of our business in the future!"
"Okay, thank you, Madam Boss!"
"You're welcome!"
Taking two packs of wet wipes and forty-six yuan in change from the lady boss, Jiang Xiaoguo walked out of the tea restaurant while stuffing the change in Yuan Xudong's hand and said:
"Here, remember to tell me next time you treat me, I won't snatch it from you!"
Before Yuan Xudong could speak, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan came over and surrounded him, saying:
“Thank you, boss!”
"Boss, you are so nice!"
Seeing that Yuan Xudong was a little embarrassed, Jiang Xiaoguo quickly squeezed Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan aside and said:
"Okay, let's go. If you don't go back to the dormitory, it will be closed!"
"Oh, Xiaoguo is heartbroken!"
"Exactly. What's this called? Beauty saves hero, hero gives himself to her?"
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo protecting Yuan Xudong, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan hugged each other and laughed. Without waiting for Jiang Xiaoguo to get angry, Duan Jiabao glanced at the wet tissue in her hand and said with a smile:
"Master Xiaoguo, are you saving wet tissues to wipe your shoes again?"
"Boss, do you need any service?"
Seeing Duan Jiabao laughing, Jiang Xiaoguo took out a wet tissue and was about to wipe her shoes, saying:
"Come on, come on, one hundred dollars a time, I'll wipe it for you!"
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, this is not allowed, absolutely not allowed!"
“Haha~~”
Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo holding a wet tissue to wipe their shoes, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan jumped and ran away laughing. Jiang Xiaoguo followed them and the three girls started playing and chasing each other, giving Yuan Xudong who was standing next to them a feast for the eyes. Of course, he only had eyes for Jiang Xiaoguo.
Although Jiang Xiaoguo is not very good-looking and her figure is not very good, she has a good personality. She is lively, kind and principled. She is exactly the type that Yuan Xudong likes, and her three views are very positive. Although Yuan Xudong's three views have gone astray, this does not prevent him from liking girls with very positive three views. Although he is in the dark, his heart is towards the light. Yuan Xudong is such a contradictory person.
Just as Yuan Xudong was looking at Jiang Xiaoguo in a daze, Jiang Xiaoguo suddenly stopped, and Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan next to him immediately surrounded him and asked with concern:
"Xiao Guo, what's wrong with you?"
"My shoes..."
Jiang Xiaoguo lifted her right heel, and the sole of her canvas shoe fell off.
"What happened to your shoes?"
Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan squatted down and looked at Jiang Xiaoguo's canvas shoes with the soles falling off. Seeing the MIKE logo on the upper, Duan Jiabao couldn't help but say:
"When did the quality of Nike become so poor?"
Without waiting for Jiang Xiaoguo to speak, Luo Yan, who was squatting next to Duan Jiabao, couldn't help but laugh :
"No no no, this is Mack, not Nike!"
Seeing Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan looking at her worn-out shoes, Jiang Xiaoguo couldn't help but say awkwardly:
"That... Mike... Mike cool down, cool down!"
"I understand, I understand!"
Seeing the embarrassed and slightly vain Jiang Xiaoguo, Yuan Xudong walked over, squatted in front of her and said:
"Come on, I'll carry you back!"
"ah?"
Hearing Yuan Xudong say this, Jiang Xiaoguo quickly waved his hand and refused:
"No, no, I'll just walk slower, you don't need to carry me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan beside him said with suppressed laughter:
"How can you walk when your shoes are like this?"
"That's right, let him carry you, so you can walk faster!"
"Just go like this!"
Jiang Xiaoguo rolled her eyes at Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan who were joining in the fun, then walked around Yuan Xudong and dragged her right foot towards the school.
"Hurry up and go, the dormitory will be closed if you don't go back!"
"Let's go!"
Jiang Xiaoguo limped in front, dragging her right heel on the ground, obviously not wanting the sole of her shoe to fall off completely. Seeing her like this, Yuan Xudong trotted over and shouted behind her:
"Jiang Xiaoguo!"
"ah?"
Hearing Yuan Xudong calling her, Jiang Xiaoguo turned around and looked at him, a little embarrassed:
"What's wrong?"
"I'll carry you!"
"No, no, I can go back by myself. Besides, it's still a long way from here to school. I..."
Without waiting for Jiang Xiaoguo to finish, Yuan Xudong took a few steps forward, picked her up by the waist, held her horizontally in his arms, weighed her, and smiled:
"How can a little thing like you tire me out?"
After that, without waiting for Jiang Xiaoguo to speak, Yuan Xudong carried her to school. I didn't expect Yuan Xudong to be so bold. When Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan, who were left behind, reacted, Yuan Xudong had already walked a distance with Jiang Xiaoguo in his arms. Duan Jiabao and Luo Yan looked at each other in bewilderment. They had always joked about Jiang Xiaoguo and Yuan Xudong, saying that they were in love. In fact, they didn't think it was true, but now they think their nonsense may be true. Jiang Xiaoguo is not only in love, but her boyfriend is also a super handsome guy at the school level.
In front, Yuan Xudong was walking with Jiang Xiaoguo in his arms, his left hand supporting her shoulders and his right hand supporting her knees. Jiang Xiaoguo curled up in his arms and struggled slightly:
"Yuan Xudong, what are you doing? Put me down quickly, I am... I am angry?"
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo's flushed face, Yuan Xudong continued to walk with a smile:
"Wait a moment, I'll drop you off after I drop you off at the dormitory building!"
"Put me down quickly, why are you like this?"
"Don't move. If my hands get sore and I accidentally drop you, don't blame me then!"
"Just move, blame it on you!"
